Large pothole still causing problems, it should have been repaired by now as it is dangerous.

Hit this pothole at about 1730 last night whilst travelling to Portsmouth. Required 2 new tyres. Also found of passenger front and rear wheels are buckled and now having my car booked in for an inspection for potential suspension damage.

Had to wait for recovery in the local petrol station through the night. Whilst there I saw at least 10 vehicles with damage to tyres on the passenger side.

The pothole is completely out of line of sight as a driver, the first time I knew about it when the noise what came from it sounded horrendous. Will be reporting to Dorset council and demanding they cover the repair cost of my vehicle!
